    If it is not replaced and you can read it, you should index it.

    You will find the following guidance in the General Indexing Guidelines (3rd) section of your Project Instructions. I have bolded the pertinent instruction.

    Crossed-Out, Corrected, Canceled, or Void Information

    When information was crossed out, corrected, canceled, or marked void, follow the instructions for “crossed out” that match the situation.

    • When information was crossed out and then replaced, type the new information in the appropriate fields.
    • When information was crossed out, was not replaced, and can be read, type the crossed-out information.
    • When information was crossed out, was not replaced, and cannot be read, mark the field as unreadable by pressing Ctrl+U, or on the indexing toolbar, click the
    •  icon below.
